Woke up but wanted to stay in bed
My fiance set my alarm for 10:30 this morning, we've been working toward getting me up earlier each day. Yesterday, without the alarm, I woke up. Today, I wanted to throw the alarm across the room. Then I slept fitfully for another few hours until my body wouldn't let me sleep anymore and I realized not getting up and not taking my meds was making me feel bad about myself. And anxious. So I got up. And am trying to be nice to myself - so I didn't get up early again, if I waste energy feeling bad about it, that won't help. Trying to stay positive. Trying to do little things that will make me feel more positive - putting on some jazz to stave off the rainy-day blues. Trying to think of getting to my doctor's appointment today as something good that I'm doing for myself rather than dreading it. Just trying. That counts, despite what Yoda said.
